Inner Well-being Across Faith - UKIYN

In a world marked by rising individual pressures and fragmented communi:es, the UK

4

Interfaith Youth Network (UKIYN) launched the Inner Well-being webinar series to explore how spiritual and medita:ve prac:ces from diverse faith tradi:ons can foster personal resilience and collec:ve peace.

The series explores how diverse religious and philosophical tradi:ons use medita:on, mindfulness, and mys:cal prac:ces to cul:vate inner peace and spiritual resilience. Through interac:ve webinars, par:cipants were introduced to contempla:ve tools that support personal growth and emo:onal balance, while also promo:ng wider community harmony. By highligh:ng shared values across faiths, the series encouraged interreligious understanding and showed how inner well-being can be a founda:on for collec:ve peacebuilding.

Trees for Peace

Trees for Peace was a social media campaign by Religions for Peace UK that marked key environmental observance days by raising awareness of pressing ecological challenges and spotligh:ng the organisa:ons ac:vely addressing them. With each of the 22 posts, RfPUK donated trees to its Trees for Peace Grove or supported the Dundreggan Nursery, both part of a rewilding project in Scotland led by Trees for Life. The campaign o9ered not only knowledge and inspira:on but also a call to ac:on, encouraging individuals to contribute in their own way toward a greener, more just world.

Interfaith Contribu/ons towards SDGs

As part of our ongoing commitment to advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through interfaith collabora:on, Religions for Peace UK hosted an online session :tled Interfaith Contribu:on towards Sustainable Development Goals: Collabora:on Opportuni:es during Inter Faith Week 2024. Building on our presenta:on at the SDGs Conference at UNGA79 in New York, this session o9ered UK-based interfaith organisa:ons insights into how RfPUK integrates SDG principles into its programmes.

The Impact of Gender Equity - 16 Days of Ac/vism against Gender-Based Violence Campaign - UKWFN

Marking the 16 Days of Ac:vism Against Gender-Based Violence (25 Nov–10 Dec), the UK Women of Faith Network highlighted organisa:ons tackling gender-based violence and inequality through educa:on, advocacy, and community support.

6

amplify the call for jus:ce, safety, and equity for all.

The UKWFN also hosted the webinar ‘Impact of Gender Equity: Where Can Change Begin?’ The session highlighted the powerful work of grassroots organisa:ons and experts addressing gender-based violence (GBV). Speakers included Natasha Eeles (Bold Voices) on youth educa:on to tackle gender inequality, Elsabeth G King (Faith and VAWG Coali:on) on the mobilisa:on of faith communi:es, and Professor Joht S Chandan (University of Birmingham) on evidence-based support for survivors. The interac:ve Q&A session brought valuable insights from prac::oners and opened the door to poten:al collabora:ons.

To conclude the UKWFN 2024 campaign, we published a downloadable GBV support resource to be posted in safe public spaces. This work reHects our belief that gender equity is essen:al to building sustainable peace.

Refugee Integra/on Programme - UKIYN

UKIYN has con:nued to priori:se refugee integra:on as a core aspect of its work, acknowledging the cri:cal need to support and upliS refugees as they navigate life in the

8

UK. Through the RfP Humanitarian Fund Refugee Integra:on Project led by Hillsong Church UK, a range of ini:a:ves were implemented to promote empathy, mutual understanding, and ac:ve community involvement, all with the goal of building a more inclusive and suppor:ve environment for refugees.

September 2024 - Brighton: 90 refugee guests from various troubled regions were taken to Brighton. Star:ng from St. Luke’s Church, Earl’s Court, groups set o9 with maps, Bingo sheets, and snacks to explore Brighton’s cultural and interfaith landmarks. Highlights included a sunny picnic at the Royal Pavilion, visits to places of worship and iconic sites during a Bingo hunt, and fun on the pier with sea dips, ice cream, and co9ee. Children received giSs and warm clothing. The day fostered connec:on, learning, and reHec:on, with many guests expressing interest in RfPUK’s ongoing programmes and volunteer opportuni:es.

November 2024 - Oxford: RfPUK’s Interfaith Youth Network organised a cultural and interfaith day trip to Oxford for 45 refugee and asylum seeker guests and volunteers from London. The group, represen:ng diverse faiths and backgrounds, began their journey at St. Luke’s Church and explored Oxford’s historic and religious landmarks through a guided walking Bingo tour. Highlights included the Ashmolean Museum, Central Oxford Mosque, Christ Church, and the Bridge of Sighs. The day blended learning with fun—children received warm clothing, Bingo winners were rewarded with chocolates, and everyone enjoyed lunch, reHec:on, and hot chocolate before returning to London. Par:cipants expressed deep apprecia:on, with many eager to engage further in RfPUK’s programmes on paren:ng, eco-ac:on, and well-being.

January 2025 - London: 39 par:cipants from Syrian, Eritrean, Ukrainian, Afghan and other backgrounds visited the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Science Museum in South Kensington, engaging with religious artefacts through a mul:faith guidebook created by RfPUK. The experience fostered deep conversa:ons, revealing shared values across faiths and encouraging mutual understanding. A warm Turkish lunch at HTB Church o9ered nourishment and connec:on, while children enjoyed games and explora:on. The day highlighted how shared learning, faith and hospitality can bridge divides and build las:ng friendships.

PEACEBUILDERS NETWORK

In 2024, Religions for Peace UK launched the PeaceBuilders Network, a new digital plaKorm designed to connect individuals and organisa:ons working toward peace across faiths, sectors, and regions. The network o9ers a searchable directory where PeaceBuilders can create and manage public-facing pro)les, allowing them to share their work, )nd collaborators, and amplify their impact.

By enabling greater visibility and interac:on between diverse peace actors, including faith and belief communi:es, academic ins:tu:ons, civic groups, and governmental bodies, the PeaceBuilders Network fosters a spirit of coopera:on and mutual support.

The value of this ini:a:ve lies in its ability to bridge gaps between isolated e9orts and amplify collec:ve ac:on. In a world facing complex social and geopoli:cal challenges,

12

strengthening communica:on and collabora:on among peace advocates is essen:al. The PeaceBuilders Network reHects RfPUK’s commitment to being a catalyst, convener, and collaborator—working to build a more peaceful and connected world.
